Recently there have been a few articles written about our ongoing custody situation.

In light of that, though we had hoped to keep all of this private, we have decided to set the record straight.

Because we are not interested in providing fodder for the tabloids we will keep our remarks focused only on the facts, and post them here on Facebook.

No we do not yet have a final legal custody agreement with Bristol Palin.

Yes it looks like we are headed back to court yet again, hopefully for the last time.

Reports of the amount owed for child support are grossly over inflated, but yes we are still paying on what we owe every single month.

We are only requesting joint custody and a reasonable child support agreement. We think this is fair, and believe it is in Tripp's best interests to have equal time with both parents, as well as with siblings on both sides of the family.

We have no wish to turn this into a public spectacle however we also do not want to be misrepresented and will correct misinformation as needed.

It is our hope that all of this will be resolved shortly as we have spent quite a lot of time, and quite a lot of money, with still no end in sight.

Hopefully this answered a few of your questions, and will keep the tabloids from manufacturing their own drama for the sake of magazine sales and internet clicks.

Sincerely

Levi and Sunny Johnston

I would imagine that this is in response to that Daily Mail article from last week declaring that there was a custody agreement in place, and the Radar Online article from today saying just the opposite.

Personally I see this as a positive step for Levi and Sunny in taking back the narrative and refusing to allow certain media outlets to fill in their silence with rumors and innuendo of their own.

Update: The post was taken down both on Levi and Sunny's Facebook pages.

I am so pleased to see this. It is great to know Tripp has 2 mature adults looking out for him. To take charge of this, as they are doing, is brave. The media likes red meat, not so many facts.

Someone is obviously putting out strange and false info about Tripp's custody situation. The same thing happens with Track Palin. It was said the Earthquake gang was spreading rumors of Track being in Iraq. Which would put him in a situation like the U.S. Army's elite Delta Force is experiencing.

New video shows scenes from raid to free hostages from ISIShttp://www.cnn.com/2015/10/25/middleeast/iraq-us-kurds-hostage-raid/

The Johnston's see Tripp as a child that will grow up and read. He will be able to check out all the bull on the internet and other. It is terrific his parents are countering some of the drama.

My best thoughts for a fair resolution for Levi and his family. Sunny, the girls and Tripp should not have to suffer the anger and revenge-seeking Palin wrath for the rest of their lives. One has to wonder what she will charge the new baby daddy for support?

I have lost interest in all things Palin, especially those which relate to anything involved with their worthless children. Furthermore, they should keep it private and not broadcast things on social media. The so-called adults are not doing whats best for the kids, so why should I care?

Am I the only one who noticed that last night Rand Paul claiming that Social Security is suffering because long ago people had "too many children". This is the same Rand Paul who wants to defund Planned Parenthood. This is a much motr pressing issue than what Bristol and Levi decide about their custody situation. Theyre both pathetic parents.

Note Rand Paul didn’t mention the SS trust fund was raided while Reagan was president. The debate (if it could be called a “debate”) was an embarrassing piece of American GOP political ignorance and obfusication in action. Did you also note Carson straight-up lying about working for a snake oil company? It was a truly bizarre spectacle.

Personally I take this as so much dreck because Levi KNOW's everything about TriG and Sarah and is paid off to keep it quiet. Maybe he gets a bonus to put up with false narratives as well as permission to make some statements that clarify things for him. JMO.

The wear expensive label clothes, the babies have Ugg boots, they have a new house and a new business, trucks, etc etc. Maybe they are mortgaged and credit card debted to the max...but it remains my opinion that Levi gets paid off for his troubles and his silence.

I think their grandparents buy them a lot of clothes. They bought a fixer upper and Levi added a great porch. They don't drive big cars. Sunny cooks meals which saves money and I don't think they go out a lot to eat but take the kids out on ventures. Sunny has made money off per photography. I think Levi makes good money, works long hours. You do not know they are morgaged and in debt to the max. What is his new business and where are the trucks?

Anonymous1:05 PMI don't know about the "paid off" part but Levi has all kinds of "ammo" against The STOOL. Her show her ongoing pregnancies and docs have been posted online that said "She won't let Levi visit HIS CHILDRENandAllso That Sunny is his SECOND wife. Funny that where this was posted the person purports to be a lawyer, made not mention of those two items?And even IF Levi hadn't been married by the Ice queen to Barstool anyone can make modifications to custody without a lawyer. There is major ?????????????????????? that is not being revealed here..The whore of BaybleON ie BarStool and her soon to be extinct dodo mama Sara can suck dicks.Note to Barstool. You can't get preggo sucking dicks just saying, which is probably why MOH knew he wasn't Daddy! FWIW I think Stool dropped the kid-at the end of Sep and when we "See" a "kid" whose kid who knows unless she goes after him for child support, she should just have a big *W* tattooed on her chest instead of A.... How many kids? G has said maybe 6 ? We can expect another palin to pop up with a kid! Isn't that how they do it spread them around or sell them off?I am sick of whore "stool" and her dumbassed bitchy mother. I hope the IRS investigation is going well which is why she is so quiet. It was just revealed today that the LIE of IRS going after cons is well, a lie! If they are going after them its b/c they have a reason!!! Right Sarah?

JaniceLevi has the license to a charter fishing business. It was posted on several of the blogs. How can he afford a boat to charter, the licensing, etc. You don't know and I don't know. At their age and with their education, they'd have to be like most Americans - mrotgaged and in debt.I maintain they are paid off for their silence, cooperation, and to look like the bad guys.

I don't know the details of Levi situation with Palins. He never did speak ill of Tripp's bio mother. He may be in a legal bind to say anything at all about Tripp Johnston.

That might be why they had to take down the Levi post on Facebook about Tripp's custody. Someone or some attorney gave them a call and it was not worth the hassle to keep it up. Levi writing more mature than Bristol would not be what Sarah would want.

I've noticed in all the photos of Tripp and Levi, Tripp is smiling and appears to be enjoying himself. Also, I've noticed in the same photos Tripp is NOT making gang signs or fish lips. When the new baby arrives and becomes the center of attention, Tripp may decide he wants to go with Levi -- it looks to me as though living with Levi and Sunny is a lot more fun.

Meanwhile, the Levi and Sunny comment is carefully-thought out, well-said, and very mature. Of course, we can expect Bristol to respond with an equally adult statement . . . right?!?!

Neither Levi or Sunny is literate so someone with a real education must have written the statement. Their wedding invitations had misspelled words! Just because Bristol is a bad parent does NOT make the Johnston's good parents.

2:18: Both Levi as well as Sunny have more education than ANY of the grifter PayMe brats have. And on top of that, both keep updating their education by taking extra courses, and Sunny is trying to get back into college (YES, she has a year of college credit already, trying to become a nurse, and straight A average. Take THAT, TROLL!)...

Sunny has one semester of prereqs for nursing degree. Good for her but she has a way to go before she graduates. I do hope she can do it but one semester is nothing only 1/8th of the way - if she took a full load.But it is a start for sure.

This whole notion of Sunny's vast "education" is preposterous. All of her relativrs who post here regularly (hi Trina 2;52!) need to get over yourselves. None of these people are some sort of brain trust - far, far from it.

Give me a fucking break! Having the college credits that one can achieve while still in high school and making A's is NOT some great accomplishment. You Alaskans are some VERY low achievers and to call someone with a high school diploma "educated" is a fucking joke. Maybe in Hillbilly Wasilla, Alaska it's a big deal but it isn't in the rest if the world. All of these people are proudly ignorant rednecks. It is what it is.

A high school graduate (I mean a real one, not someone whose GED was purchased) should be plenty literate, and educated to a reasonable level. If Levi works as an electrician then he's clearly had some sort of trade training. In this economy that's worth a heck of lot more than many liberal arts degrees. And didn't Sunny work as a preschool teacher? By all accounts both are loving, responsible parents, handling a difficult situation with a lot of class. No drunken brawls, no parade of baby daddies, etc. This is not a portrait of white trash hillbilly behavior.

This is not about brain trusts or educations. IT IS ABOUT CUSTODY. It is about parenting and a child.

The uneducated with lack of brain trust can be honest citizens and good parents. Others are like Bristol.

Bristol doesn't even purchase her own GED, 'diplomas' and such.

Bristol is a complete 'mommy girl', everything is purchased and done for her. She can't help he learning disabilities. She could have done something about her lack of independence but the money and fame bedazzled her and she fell for what Sarah buys for her to keep her in line with the Palin saga of fraud and strange birthing.

Of course Sunny's appearance has nothing to do with her parenting skills.

And now, let's check out Bristol's parenting skills.-- Circulates video of her 4-yr-old calling everyone in sight a "faggot" while she rolls around laughing at him.-- Drags her child from one shack-up to another, introducing each one as a "trial marriage." How many guys has she shacked up with, dragging Tripp to everyone of them?-- Bristol and the rest of her family get themselves shit-faced, knee-walking drunk, throw Tripp in the car around midnight, and get themselves into a drunken street brawl.

You are right, 2:16: Sunny's parenting skills are nothing like Bristol's.

Besides all the attention they give Tripp, taking all the kids everywhere... have you noticed what a great writer Sunny is?Shows she is educated. Bristol could have never wrote this herself.....Bristol will hate this Facebook entry from Sunny. It only goes to show Bristol has no class when she describes the situation.

I'm 3:50Yep, rhymes with hep. I should have spell checked.However, I am a PHD student AND I can properly use too, two, to, your , you'reetc.What I CAN'T do is keyboard well.In the 1980s if you were going to college you did not learn to type - that class was for the girls going on to be secretaries. I'm at a real disadvantage today and am trying to learn.

Barfstol and her bitch mother will do anything to ruin that family financially Remember when TMZ got granny on camera calling Levi a deadbeat dad.

I'd take that to court and play it over and over again to show what a vindictive hateful vicious cow granny is.. And her daughter is only interested in buying 600 dollar shoes, 1000 handbags, eyelash extensions and trips to Vegas to whore around.

Sunny's eyelashes are naturally long and lush. I have seen her true no makeup photos. She uses a 2 part mascara with fibers to achieve her mega lash look. $35 bucks at Amazon. Compare that to the Stool who pays a couple large and take a few hours away from children to get those yucky spider let looking extensions. Then she takes all sorts of time taking selfies and touching them up. That's the Stool, for ya. Sunny, on the other hand is a one-take wonder who never has a bad shot. She's beautiful inside and out. Smart and kind, too.

Sorry 5 38I'm 3 51 and Im certinly not Bristles. Im a long time reader, whose family income is in the mid 6 figures and although I COULD afford 35 dollar mascara, I wouldn't on principle. I have ice lashes like Sunny and wouldn't need it/dont use it/wouldn't pay it. Certainly if I as on tight budget I wouldn't even consider that a priority or even MISS it..

Bristol's family has abandoned her. Sunny and Levi have offered to help her. They have supported her with the fatherless baby, or as some religions would say, the bastard. Unlike Bristol's parents who are terrified to speak about their own flesh and blood.

I'm wondering who pays whom when Nancy French writes those blog posts for Bristol. There is no way that Bristol can write anything longer than an Instagram comment. The strong conservative religious viewpoint is Nancy's. Nancy has little chance of being noticed on her own, but ghost writing for Bristol, she has a better chance that on-line media will post her comment. So the question is: Does Nancy pay Bristol rent for her name and blog? Who pays Nancy to write the conservative, right wing religious stuff for Bristol? My guess is Sarah and/or SarahPAC because Sarah often links to those ghost written posts as her alternate voice.

Bad news Uncle G! A well known liberal website is working on this story but they aren't as enamored with the Johnston family in the way that you are. I dont think they're impressed with this attempt by the Johnstons to publicize the family dirty laundry. Boo hoo!

There was more than one baby used for Sarah's fraud scam. Levi knows plenty. He is not the one who controls who can do, say or write what. 99% of the time Levi has to behave as the Palins want. If not he could lose his current lifestyle and what he now has going for him and his family.

Not that I care about them anymore, but did he ever get a dna test? The little boy looks nothing like him. I've also never heard of a custody agreement going on for years. You get one, and it's done. You may revisit the court for adjustment if one person's income has drastically changed, but that would be the only reason. They should have worked out that full/joint custody thing from day one. It's beyond odd.

Long, drawn-out custody battles are far from rare. The situation you describe is when both parents cooperate. With a parent like Bristol, backed by someone like Sarah, well, let's just say family law attorneys make their money off cases like this. It's sad for the other parent, who would just like to have things finished.

I feel badly for Tripp, Bristol's little prop and moneymaker, her little stud and his exposure to people like, well, Bristol, Willow, Sarah, Marina Caviar and a long line of trial daddies. Bristol used and abused him for "reality shows", "Gang sign selfies", and to boost her bona fides on single motherhood and abstinence adviser. Levi and Sunny seem to be the only "adults" here, who have Tripp's best interest at heart. They've, for the most part, lived their lives vibrantly and below the radar of the media. They're Tripp's only consistent stable influence in his life. We never hear of Levi and Sunny renting a stretch hummer, crashing a party then whaaaah whaaah whaaahing about persecution when removed from the property without benefit of second amendment remedy on the part of the property owner.

Tangentially: The internet's vilest, nastiest hypocrite, Bristol Palin/Nancy French, has written a blog post blaming the 16-year-old girl for the hideous police brutality incident earlier this week. Worst of all, it now comes to light that this girl's mother recently died, and she has been living in foster care.

As a former teacher who knows all too well that when kids act out in class, it's almost always because something is wrong ("A ploy for attention is usually a cry for help"), I am so saddened, not to mention that much more disgusted with the spoiled sociopath Miss Palin and her ghostwriter for exploiting the story for their own foul purposes. For SHAME.

Yeah, and now the Sarah people want you to know that Track Palin is in Iraq fighting for freedoms. Bristol and Nancy's freedom to write what they want when they want and never have to answer to anyone (just Sarah).

Actually... the attorney for the girl has changed the story... the girls mother and grandmother are alive and well. Big surprise. And the article you linked to.... Shaun King 'author', is a white guy pretending to be a black guy... you would be hard pressed to find a more full of shit writer (con artist) on the web. Hilarious.

Shaun King is far more respectable--writing under his real name and being up-front about his complicated family history--than someone who posts as Anonymous, slanders people, and fails to provide any links or reliable supporting documentation for his or her assertions about this unfortunate teen. HILARIOUS.

Shaun King is a con artist Deborah. You heard it here first apparently, although it should be obvious to anyone, even with a low IQ. He is respected by almost no-one and is a laughing stock. Read the comments on his ny daily 'news' comment section. Only the most gullible buy his shtick. He is a race baiter and a liar, and does zero research (why would he anyways, he lies with intent). Plus he really sucks at writing. The funniest part is he is trying so hard to make people believe he is black, but he is really just a white pretending. The irony.

It is HILLARIOUS that you fall for his crap.

Yes the teens mother and grandmother are alive and well, and those with brains roll our eyes at the dummies who fall for this crap. That 'unfortunate' teen should have had better parenting and this whole situation would never have occurred.

You can wallow in the embarrassing slop fed to you by false story tellers meghan. If you want the proof, you can find it yourself. Maybe you'll learn something. I did you the favor of supplying the truth, but I'm not your teacher.

To "Anonymous" at 6:32, Newsweek (and no other source, yet) reports that the teen's mother *is* still alive, but the child is indeed in foster care, and of course, all other aspects of the story are accurate: she suffered broken bones and other injuries at the hand of that out-of-control police-"man". In short, the teen is no less sympathetic--she had been placed in foster care and does not have a loving, functioning birth-family. What she does have, now, is a collection of very real injuries and non small amount of emotional trauma, plus steep medical bills. (N.B.Shaun King has updated his NYDN piece to reflect this information, too.)

If you want people to take you seriously and respect what you write, grow a pair use your real name instead of hiding behind Anonymous while calling people names, suggesting they have "low I.Q.", and misspelling simple words like "hilarious". QED

Maybe someone hinted to the Johnstons that posting what should remain private family business on Facebook is not cool. This man has at least three kids but he behaves like a teenager in 9th grade. None of this bunch is going to get any sympathy from me.

"Siblings" My guess, and I'm trying to be kind, are the children Levi and Sunny have, combined with the future Twig, Stick, Streaming, Vegas, or whatever Barstool names her baby girl and whatever other fruit she drops in the future. As to why it was pulled, no idea.

There are many people with learning issues. It doesn't turn everyone into a liar. Bad spellers are not all bad parents. There is nothing wrong with having help with writing or even having a ghostwriter. Problem is when one pretends to be what they are not or when a person is hypocritical.

For the record, you don't know shit 3:42. Bristol has blatantly ignored the terms of the current custody agreement on a continuing basis. And, this case IS deep in court - it has not been to trial. Yet. Bristol has everything to lose.

I think the way the Palin machine wants things done is to drop an anonymous story to a rag or let the Cons start the rumors about what Sarah says about her crazy kids and kids kids. Track may be a grandpa by now. Isn't he almost 30? We don't know what all they hide about his younger years.

Bristol doesn't want to go to school because school is hard and she's not interested in doing work or learning anything.

She went to "skin school" and yet does not have a license to practice in Alaska. Did she fail out, drop out, never intend to actually graduate, never intend to actually work as an aesthetician? That seem strange since she works for a skin doctor. The truth is that Bristol has no interest in working hard for anything and is probably incapable of learning to do much.

♢ Marina doesn't talk about God while Bristol wants everybody to believe she's a Christian and has been pregnant twice and has never been married.

♢ Marina's mother doesn't talk about God and the Bible or claims to be America's Moral Police. But Christian Moral Police Sarah Palin's family has problems with marriages, pregnancies and her husband has been identified as a pimp by a prostitute.

My guess is Bristol is desperate for love and Marina is out there looking for a good time.

Did Bristol get love from her parents while growing up?

I say no because Bristol always claims to be in love and went as far to advertise for a lumbersexual when all her love connections failed and trying out husbands (Trial Husband - Gino) failed and her three engagements failed.

There is something really odd about Bristol's situation. Why no family and friends baby showers? Why no siblings or parents talking about the new family member? The only pictures anywhere are Bristol taking pictures of herself and Tripp. It is like they are living in a world of their own. Does anyone really know where Bristol is living? I can't believe she is living by herself in her new house. And, who said the vacation was for a celebration? Why would she fly at this late term, duh, why would she dance on DWTS throwing herself around and on the floor. None of this makes sense. I bet her new baby has already been born..... she is celebrating her freedom.

@5:44 My guess is Bristol is desperate for love and Marina is out there looking for a good time.

What is Todd's excuse if he's unfaithful? 1. Aint gettin' no lovin' from Sarah?2. Sarah's cookie is dried up and stale? 3. Shailey Tripp is the light of Todd's life?4. Sarah is out there in the streets ignoring her husband's needs?5. Todd's gettin' even for losing his buddy Brad Hansen? 6. Getting even for interviewing Glenn Rice?7. Have you seen Sarah without her makeup, breasts and clothes on? She's not Miss Wasilla anymore? 8. Maybe they are divorced?9. Maybe aging has decreased the elasticity in Sarah's hoohah?

I have to agree with you... I hate guns but think maybe not growing up in that environment I missed something. Not Sure!My problem is why would I listen to any 25 year old tell me anything about life or what I should believe? They are still kids. They think they are grownups but really just stupid kids!I have a daughter who is 32 and not married but living with her future husband for the last 2 years. I'm all for that since the divorce rate is so high. Learn to love each other...stop the nonsense...share your children...stop fighting!In the end ... only your child will lose.

I'm an Alaskan and their lifestyle could not be more diametrically opposed from mine, however, I do feel badly for anyone that has to spend large amounts of money and time fighting a custody battle against a nasty, uncooperative co-parent. I don't care if they hunt, have guns (and name their kids after guns) wear camo and have tattoos, I still side with them against the immature and angry Bristol. I'd side with them even if the adversarial parent was not a Palin, even if I have zero in common with them.

Wow. Something that was posted hit the Palins in the jugular. Lookee at all the vicious trollery! I just hope that Levi and Sunny will continue to do the best for their children and rise above the stench coming from the Palin Pond.

I thought so at first, and it may have been intended that way. But, considering that Tripp already has two siblings from Levi and Sunny's side, that would technically make the use of the plural appropriate, even if soon-to-deliver Bristol had no other children.

I don't believe for a second that Levi was the problem in "that" relationship, but he was young and immature, so I've been much impressed with the way Levi has matured since then, and believe a bit of that is owed to Sunny.

If you look at Bristols new picture she just posted on Instagram, she is really big and really looks stuffed like her mom was. Her stomach is not round. Also, if you go back a couple pages of her Instagram photos, you will see she is wearing the exact same top when she was flat. That seems to be the only maternity top she has. How would that top fit flat to big, must really stretch. Does not make sense. Why no other maternity clothes or tops? Maybe she is not pregnant and didn't want to buy those clothes. All these pictures in the same tight shirt does not make sense. It cannot stretch that much. The newest picture of today really looks fake. Her face, etc. are so skinny......

I think the reason Bristol is stalling going back to court for the custody hearing is because she knows Levi has a good chance to joint custody which means she will get no child support. I think she is almost broke and without his money, she will be hurting. Who is she going after for child support for this new baby? If she played around in LasVegas, she probably doesn't even know names she slept with. She won't be able to work with two kids and keep up on bills for the house, etc. She has to be frantic..... Is it public record if she applied for ADC?

EXACTLY! There is nothing like a normal mother or someone expecting a baby. Not saying she isn't having a baby or has delivered. It is just the way they use her IG account for the Palin family values political agenda.

It is not human. It is being controlled by fools and idiots. Sad that Bristol is such a loser and can't have an independent life. She can't perform well with this gig they use her for now.

The amount the courts decided Levi owes is public information at AK Dept of Resources page. Pretty substantial unfortunately, especially considering all the money Bristol has pulled in not working at all.

What sucks for Levi is he has a tough trap to get out of. If Bristol keeps sole custody, where they don't consider her income at all, and he works 2 jobs to pay his arrears, it just increases his income for his current child support obligation.
